Supporting Freeman Since 1982
The Douglas Freeman Athletic Boosters Club helps provide financial resources for our athletic program comprising more than 38 teams at the varsity, junior varsity, and freshman levels in 15 different sports. While Henrico County provides funding for basic needs such as coaching positions and transportation, it is the Boosters Club that works to offset many of the expenses required to build competitive, successful sports teams.
